While they kept showing the despair of coach Adam Potter, I kept thinking about who Cameron is going to get to coach our VFL team.
The idea that Cameron will put together an administration and coaching panel for a VFL team just fills me with horror.

Everybody wants a VFL team and doesn't even give a thought to the club's ability to actually make it function.

Is Astbury just getting over his injury blues or something as I havent been impressed with him at the coburg at all.

watching astbury the past few weeks ,the thing i notice is his lack of intensity.Seems quite content to sit back rather than to get involved.He needs to start announcing himself more.

Stop abusing people who don't get on their knees for everything Richmond. I have had enough of it and you've been reported you bad man.

Not saying Astbury will or won't make it eventually but this year is a write off for him. Playing now is just about building confidence in his body after missing practically 18 month or so of footy. He wouldn't missed last preseason so his fitness base will be below what it needs to be. IMO we should judge him on what he does next year after a full preseason.

Geez highlights can make some players look good.

Derickx looks like a pack marking machine with a tank like Richo. A. Maric looks like the next Trent Cotchin, Browne and Gus make it look like we're spoiled for ruck options with their tap work, marking power and goal kicking abilities.
